The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I have been a student K-12 and I do believe the school has amazing qualities, but it definitely has stuff it could work on. Some of my favorite classes the school offers is the Agriculture and Ceramics class. But some of the teachers are not the best. But the staff is extremely friendly and you are always gonna be seen and everyone will know your name. There are definitely things I would change but most of the things I would keep.
